your pretty much on the right track but:

frequence should be about 3 times per week
intesity for a beginner like the 40 year old woman should be about 60% MHR [FONT=&quot]progressively [/FONT]increasing as the session go on eg) 1st two sessions should be 60% MHR and the 3rd 65% and so on
Time for a beginner should be at just 20min increasing just like the intensity
and you have type pretty much down pat:wave:
